These last 2 weeks has been increasingly hectic for me. Helping my sister pack her things, reading up and listing down the necessary details needed for my visa application, packing my own things, planning family trips and the list goes on and on! Really. I dont know how modern working women these days cope with household chores and working at the same time. Imagine if they have children! Can faint man! Now even that im not working, I feel so exhausted already, taking care of the house and my 2 adult children. Cooking almost everyday is vital because if I dont, my children will go hungry. Haha.

Anyways, today I worked for Cardiff University- did some photo shoots in the library, hallway and IT department for 2 hours. It sounds super duper easy but it was extremely tiring! The hardest thing was pretending to laugh over and over again. I was so exhausted packing and working today that we ordered Chinese takeaway for dinner.

Oh but this week has been amazing! Why? It's because so many happy things took place. Besides having an amazing bday dinner this year in a Mexican restaurant, I received many presents and felt like a kid all over again. Not only that, my dearest parents gave me a lump sum of money to buy a bday & graduation present for myself and also a surprise present for my sister for being such a competent pharmacist.

Teng.

Baby.

Tequila shots.

Honey Bear.

With the money, I got myself a Sony NEX 3!! YAY! So now all my pictures will be super duper clear. Thanks to mummy n papa for being so generous and Brian for helping me pick out such a good camera. It's silver btw.

My sister received a blackberry Bold, with a super cool charger.

Gift wrap by Amazon.

Taken with Nex 3. So clear even though we didnt have ample lighting.

This pic I didnt focus properly.

Taken with my good ol'Canon Digital Ixus 860 IS

And I bought some really good stuff for my skin from yesstyle.com. Im so happy with my purchase- esp the BB cream. It works as good as foundation, but the cool thing is that it has really high spf- 42 and perfect for people who has pimples as it has some healing properties in it. The other item that I really like is the Rice Mask by Skin Food. I never use Skin Food but I heard that this Rice Mask does wonders and having tried it last night- oh my my!! My skin already feels so soft and moisturized after the first usage. I like the cold and tangy feeling on my face and so I placed it in the fridge. Even my sister loves this product after using it once.

Finally tried benetint. I love this blusher! It gives such a natural rosy blush on the cheeks. Bought it off e-bay for only 3 pounds. Actually, they're not supposed to be sold separately as it is a sample. But I didnt want to pay 25 pounds for a full bottle as my Lancome blusher is still quite new.

Papa and mummy r coming over in like....5 days!! SO HAPPY! I feel so excited seeing them again after being separated for almost 10 months. They are indeed the best parents in the world and Im really glad that Ive the chance to experience what it means to have a happy family.

We do not remember days; we remember moments. I was once told by a friend that we should do the following: To laugh often and much; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; and know that great things can only come with hardship because everything happens for a reason.
